Weaknesses
- Filling the voids- The departure of Curtis Borchardt and Casey Jacobsen
to the NBA has left some big holes to fill. The two NBA picks accounted for
47 percent of Stanford's scoring and 37 percent of their rebounding.
- Free throws - Ninth in the Pac-10 with a .655 percentage.
Last Time the Cardinal Played Oregon State...
in Corvallis...
Casey Jacobsen was on his way toward another horrible game, and Stanford was
staring at a possible second straight road loss. In came freshman Josh Childress
to cover Jacobsen's back and help the Cardinal pull away for a victory. Childress
scored 19 points, including seven straight during a second-half run, and Jacobsen
recovered his shot after that to lift the 14th-ranked Cardinal past Oregon State
67-50. Recap
